Alchemia Consulting is not your typical consulting firm. They help companies drive true long-term business success by heightening people's engagement with their company, introducing collaborative practices, building management excellence, and designing performance management processes and programs that inspire and motivate.
Becoming a B Corporation is important because for the first time we have quantifiable standards which measure the foundational elements for what it means to be a mission based for-profit.
A new business model has emerged, based on conclusive evidence that organizations reach their full potential only when their employees and customers are emotionally engaged.
The Change We Seek™
Alchemia Consulting's mission is to bring people centered programs, initiatives, and practices into organizations which build thriving workplaces.
• Alchemia is honored to help leading corporations like Microsoft, FedEx, and Starbucks who understand the power of building a genuinely engaged workforce. These projects are a vehicle for them to positively impact a large portion of their workforce.
• Many believe they can either make a difference or make a living. Alchemia Consulting isn't buying that. Their goal, backed by years of successful experience, is to help their clients build social businesses that are both impactful and prosperous. They design and implement programs for successful B Corporation certification because they want their clients to follow in their example: joining the community of B Corporations affirms a commitment to making an impact using the power of business.
